Ethernet over Self-Healing Network Services (SHNS)

Keep Your Business Up and Running with SHNS

Who can blame you for wanting to avoid downtime at all costs? Fortunately,
CenturyLink offers a solution that allows you to minimize this pesky part of doing business without breaking the bank. Ethernet over Self-Healing Network Services (SHNS) provides business continuation, disaster recovery, and survivability through a failure-resistant telecommunications network. The service is designed to automatically detect service degradation or a single failure anywhere within the system.
It then reconfigures itself around the point of failure to
ensure a near-continuous flow of information between those locations that are within the survivable network.
